Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 teaspoon salt
½ cup chopped zucchini
1 (9 inch) unbaked pastry shell
2 tablespoons butter
1 ½ cups chopped onion
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 cup chopped tomatoes
½ cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon curry powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch ground cinnamon
5 eggs
¼ cup milk
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Sprinkle 1 teaspoon salt over zucchini and let sit for 10 minutes to drain water.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (235 degrees C). Line pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  • Bake pastry shell in preheated oven for 5 minutes; remove foil and bake until shell is lightly browned, about 5 minutes longer.
  • Reduce oven heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion, green pepper, tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, and zucchini until just tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in curry powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper, and cinnamon; spoon vegetable mixture into crust.
  • Beat eggs in a bowl; stir in milk, Parmesan cheese, and Cheddar cheese. Carefully pour egg mixture over vegetables.
  • Bake in preheated oven until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The crust was soggy and the filling was bland.

I'm not sure about this recipe. It seems like it would be too dry.

This quiche was so easy to make and it was delicious! I used a store-bought pie crust to save time and it still turned out great.
